Thomas Tuchel unhappy with England attitude in laboured victory over Andorra
Boos greeted the final whistle, just as they did at half-time, after the 6,950 travelling fans watched the Euro 2024 runners-up put in a limp performance against the side ranked 173rd in the world. England failed to turn their dominance into a goal as the first half ended scoreless, with Harry Kane finally making the breakthrough when turning in star man Noni Madueke's cross in the 50th minute. A 1-0 win for the #ThreeLions in Barcelona 👊 — England (@England) June 7, 2025 But Tuchel's side failed to kick on in Barcelona and the skipper's third goal in as many games under the German boss proved the difference in an underwhelming win against obdurate Andorra. 'I didn't like the attitude how we ended the game,' Tuchel said after his first away match in charge. 'I liked the attitude how we started the game, the first 25 minutes, but I didn't like the last 25 minutes, the last half an hour. 'I think we lacked the seriousness and the urgency that is needed in a World Cup qualifier. 'We played with fire and I didn't like the attitude in the end. I didn't like the body language and I think it was not what the occasion needed.' England tightened their grip at the top of Group K by continuing their 100 per cent start to World Cup qualification and life under Tuchel. 'In the end we played with fire, honestly,' the head coach reiterated at the RCDE Stadium. 'I felt it almost like in a cup game where the favourite does not smell the danger. 'I didn't feel a team that is aware it's only 1-0 in a World Cup qualifier because we were not happy with ourselves. 'I'm not blaming them, I even feel like (they felt) 'OK, we're not happy and this is stuck today, it will not happen today'. 'Step by step the energy dropped. We needed exactly the opposite but we couldn't deliver and so we got away with a win. 'I think we still deserved the win and we have three wins and three clean sheets. From there we go. 'We will not stop to encourage them and make clear after we have a proper look at the match what we want from them.' Tonight's England Player of the Match connected by @EE: @NoniMadueke_! 🌟 — England (@England) June 7, 2025 Supporters also want more from the players and Tuchel could not blame them for expressing their frustration in Spain, where he heard boos but not abusive songs from some about Prime Minister Keir Starmer. 'The booing is OK,' the England head coach said. 'First of all, the support was amazing, unbelievable. They created a fantastic atmosphere for a match like this. 'When I came out, straight away I was excited and they made it a very special atmosphere first of all. Following #EnglandAway 🏴👏 — England (@England) June 7, 2025 'They were underwhelmed and not happy with our performance, especially how we ended the first half, so I don't think we can blame them for that. 'We cannot even blame them how we ended the match. In the opposite. I thought they were fantastic throughout the whole match. 'I did not hear anything about what you said about abusive songs or chants, so if it happens of course it's not acceptable but I didn't hear it.'

Olympic bronze medallist Lewis Richardson wins pro debut… and can now enjoy his postponed birthday curry
LEWIS RICHARDSON secured a debut windaloo weekend. The Colchester lad turned 28 on Wednesday but could not celebrate with his professional boxing bow slated for last night in Ipswich. 3 Instead the southpaw booked a local curry restaurant for 15 loved ones and just had to deliver the goods in the ring. And the 2024 Olympic bronze winner did the job, beating tough Estonian Dmitri Protkunas 60-54 on points. The Brit ace had a loud crowd make the 29-minute drive over from his doorstep. And they cheered his slick southpaw work, rapid fists and the willingness to drop his hands to his waist, in an effort to get the cautious journeyman to engage. The Essex ace used to sell Pukka Pies at the Portman Road stadium a decade ago, while doing his school exams. And he returned to his old stomping ground for six one-sided rounds where he showed plenty of his amateur skill and future potential. Richardson had to bin his birthday plans to make the middleweight limit for this weekend. The spicy celebrations have been pushed back but the silky southpaw plans to put in a curry order worthy of a Gavin and Stacey special, to make up for the diet. CASINO SPECIAL - BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS 3 LIVE - FOLLOW ALL THE ACTION FROM FABIO WARDLEY VS JUSTIS HUNI AS IT HAPPENS AT PORTMAN ROAD 'The birthday is postponed for four days,' he revealed to us. 'The party is pushed back to Sunday. 'I have a curry house booked in Colchester for 15 of us and my mouth is watering just talking to you about it now. 'I can't even think about my order now. "But I can say for sure that I will sound like Smithy with the number of bhunas and naans and rice types I am going to order.' 3
